1967 Plymouth Fury III 4dr Hardtop. Classic MoPar 318 V8 Car show and drive.

[@philipehrman8608]

In 1977 while in college and very poor, I desperately bought a 67 Fury wagon for $300 from an older couple who used it to tow their boat. Forrest green, 318, power steering, brakes, heavy-duty radiator and transmission cooler, power rear window and an AM/FM radio. 30k original miles, not a scratch, dent, sign of wear and tear on the interior, or speck of rust. The couple had just put on a brand-new set of radial tires. Drove effortlessly for 2.5 years without a single problem to about 80k miles. Sold it for $300 after graduation and moving out of state. In the 80's, while visiting, the guy I sold it to still drove it around. Still looked the same! I've owned over 55 cars in my life, this was the best car I ever owned.

I’d love to have a wagon version!

[@planetetelios9748]

My father's car in 1967. A pretty blue Fury II. I was 5 years old this year. Great memory!

[@timothykeith1367]

Thats a handsome Fury. I like the stacked headlight cars of the 60s.

[@clembob8004]

Nice old Fury! Those were some of the nicest Furys in those years. Pretty well built and dependable as a rock especially with a 318.

[@mrBILL-sr2cu]

My dad purchased a well-kept, clean '68 Fury III four door sedan with the 318 and factory air conditioning as a first car for me back in 1977. I didn't appreciate it at the time, but it was a perfect first car. Good running with ice cold air conditioning - but a 10 year old Plymouth sedan was not the "in" thing to have back in 1977-78!

[@ObsoleteAutomotive]

Ice cold air sounds pretty nice for those days!

[@mrBILL-sr2cu]

@@ObsoleteAutomotive It was nice, cold, and quiet operating (and you go easy on that slant six/3 speed Coronet. That column linkage needs to be treated a little less rough. I don't want to sound like I am fussing at you, just some friendly advice)

[@ObsoleteAutomotive]

@@mrBILL-sr2cu I have yet to have any trouble with my column shifts manuals. I have several other cars equipped with them. They are plenty robust and I’ve driven them much harder than in this video! Sure one can drive slower but the purpose was to show that the car isn’t a slouch if need be. Thanks for watching!

[@RoadRunnergarage8570]

pretty decent shape for its age...

[@glennfields8121]

I remember these in white as a post sedan used by the Hyattsville Police Department. Small town used big sedans with large V8 engines using enormous amounts of the taxpayer's money to purchase gasoline. The price of gasoline then was only about 30 cents per gallon. They struck fear when viewed in the rearview mirror of teenagers since they just knew that lights would likely flash in moments for any number of reasons. I really like the old Mopar cars and trucks. Thank you for showing the car.

[@patricklynch1962]

I recognise this car, I regret not buying it when I had the chance as I lived only a couple of counties away from it. We have had three 67-68 Furys in the family. I still have the '68 Fury VIP 2 door fast top that's been in the family since the late 70's also with a 318 2 barrel carburetor. It came from the same dealership in Lexington your car did. Wonderful cars. The Flo-Through rear vent system was a '67 only feature. You could get it in Fury III, four door hard tops like yours, and also on the Sport Fury and VIP 2 door fast tops. You had make sure the hoses weren't blocked periodically otherwise they would clog with leaves or other debris. That "rust proofing" in the trunk I think was factory sound deadening, all three of the '67-68 Furys we had in the family came with it. My first car was a '67 Sport Fury fast top with the 318 2 barrel. Drove it for 13 years. Even though pieces of it live in in my '68 VIP, I still miss it. My favourite Mopar V8. My '79 Dodge St. Regis has that under the hood as well.

[@douglasnieblas74]

Wow that brings up memories. I owned a 1967 Plymouth Fury III convertible back in the 1990s.

[@ThomasG.-hh9gg]

30 years ago I bought a 1968 Plymouth fury 3,4 door hardtop with a 318 v8. That 318 is a damn good motor. I Lost a job because of that fury. IT WAS WORTH IT!!!!!!

[@dwi189]

That car was definitely well cared for.....The interior looks like it is from a few year old car rather than 56 years old. The fact that it was used for transportation to college is impressive as well given the car's condition.

[@ENTERTAINMENT35]

My grandfather had a 68' Fury III AND was a WW2 vet as well

[@kipbrown1549]

Do the rust repair and paint it and you will have a very very cool looking car inside and out /////////// Being a hardtop makes it look so cool ////////////

[@seanmcgivney7631]

I haven't seen those fender mounted turn signals since I was very young. Thank you for including that.

[@danielthoman7324]

I used to think they were so cool.

[@TigerDominic-uh1dv]

It's not in that bad of condition it would be a great Project 😊

[@ObsoleteAutomotive]

It could be a driver with relative ease. And I’ve had far worse!

[@chrisparsons7043]

Another great video, my favourite Fury models are 67 2 door and 70 Sport Fury 4-door. Nice to be able to see the interior of the 67 Fury III 😎

[@timothyharrison8953]

For the longest time, these were family hand me down cars to learner drivers. $500 when I was a young adult in the early eighties. Just transportation. I can't believe what some people ask for them now 😕.

[@MyWillypilly]

reliability, cheap maintenance. I'd drive that to west coast without a thought.

[@johncaballero8013]

Love the old Fury’s. Well built automobiles. Wonderful cruiser.

[@404goldie7]

Great to see! I owned a Turbine Bronze 4 door sedan for a few years around 2000, great sturdy dependable nice driving Mopar, '67 was the best year for the 318 with a forged (?) crankshaft.I love those taillights, and they never line up. Love the sound when you shut the doors. A guy offered me cash on the spot at a car show, before I even knew it, it was gone. Thank you for keeping it safe for the WWII Vet and his family.

[@gasser66]

Neat rig, thanks for the tour. 🎵You're gonna need an ocean of calamine lotion🎵🎵

[@bill90405]

I think the 64-69 Chrysler Corp. cars were about the best they made from the standpoint of performance and durability

[@donaldperrotta8514]

I always loved the 1967 Plymouths. !

[@jeffsmith846]

Nice basic transportation with the class of a 4 door hardtop! Since this video is quite a while back, I am sure it went to a good home.

[@ObsoleteAutomotive]

@@jeffsmith846 I ended up trading this car for the 1957 Ford featured in later videos.

[@markwilliams5606]

Had one just like it. Same color. 318. Very dependable Plymouth. 🇺🇸🐴

[@danielthoman7324]

I like those fender mounted turn signals. Not too many cars had them even back then. You could buy those signals in some auto supply stores stores and Put them on whatever car you had. I used to think that was so cool. 😅

[@johnmccann3964]

I had a 67 Fury II, 318, gold with a gold interior back in the mid 90s. Sure was fun to drive.

[@courtneymoyer1637]

Nice car👍🏾

[@jamespn]

I remember seeing new 1967 Plymouth Furys at Raynal Brothers Dodge Plymouth in Detroit on Outer Drive and Chalmers Aves.

[@rickloera9468]

That is one amazing car. I wish i had the resources to own that car. Id tske it in a second. I have always loved the late 50's and 60's cars.

[@martayking8694]

My brother had a 67 Sports Fury convertible. Was a fast car

[@artiedeko]

when l saw the license plate l was laughing! l lived in Ky when the smiley face plates came out.People were complaining so much Ky's DMV let you put a little round yellow sticker on the smiley face to cover it up!🤣

[@Liberty-tn3rs]

Kentucky part of the rustbelt states, amazingly car except for rust not bad. 318 was a good engine , for I had a 1973 Plymouth valiant.

[@brianandglendaharkin9457]

I had in the 90s 2 68 Dodge phoenix both pilliares 383 big block one blue black vinyl top blue trim plus a white 383 pillares big block white with black trim I like the 68 rear end better all our hardtops were 383 👍🏻🇦🇺. Be a nice car with some TLC .

[@jeffreyrigged]

close to home there lol. I like that thing. If i where a mopar guy id be all over it.

[@XXSLEDGEHAMMER360XX]

Awesome!

[@franswijnands4022]

i love it❤

[@LongIslandMopars]

For that drivers side mirror control, I helped a friend pull apart a 68 New Yorker last year for usable parts before the body got scrapped. I remember taking the mirror assembly out to get the armrests and door cards off. If its still around, you want me to find out if the mirror assembly is available?

[@ObsoleteAutomotive]

I actually traded this car for the ‘57 Ford in my other videos. But thanks for the thought!

[@LongIslandMopars]

@@ObsoleteAutomotive No prob. I spent most of today watching your Mopar content. Very cool.

[@ObsoleteAutomotive]

@@LongIslandMopars Thanks for watching!

[@bradhampton6457]

Great cars these C body Mopars were. The only thing about the ones with power brakes… they were very touchy. Would almost throw you into the dash if you hit them too hard.

[@robertmoore5287]

That green paint in the trunk is rust-oleum.

[@martayking8694]

My father-in-law had the exact car same color

[@ObsoleteAutomotive]

I really like the color.

[@gene978]

In 1967 out of Chevy, Ford, Plymouth, or Dodge, I wonder which I would have chosen? The Dodge exterior was interesting, the Chevy Coke bottle design was nice, the Ford was probably most quiet riding, the Plymouth like this one seems plain to me was probably very dependable. All were Rust prone here in the N.E.

[@poky1958]

i can't believe they mad a plymouth fury without air conditioning

[@joemazzola7387]

It's only original once I would just clean it up Clay bar then Polish and wax

[@Hellodarknessmyolefriend]

Hell lot easier to repair the todays mess
